Chapter38
“The kid... I'm sorry about that. The divorce papers-those were your fault. But we can call it even. We can go
back to the way things were, as long as you stop being so petty.”
He kept talking, ignoring the look on Sarah’s face behind him.
She was fuming, staring atlike | was the enemy.
1 didn’t care.
But then she suddenly burst into tears, clinging to Antonio's
arm.
“I'm sorry, Grace. It’s all my fault. | love Antotoo much. | swear, I'll leave. | won't bother you guys again.
Please don’t hate me.”
“Grace, my child is your child. If it weren't for me, you
wouldn't have gone through with the abortion. I'll give you my little one as compensation. Please, take care of
him better, okay? | beg you.”
She dropped to her knees to beg me.
But Antonio, looking colder by the second, pulled her up.
He looked at Sarah with a face full of sympathy, gently patting her head.

“Gracel Apologizel Why are you being so aggressive? Sar’s. innocent! You're the one who caused this with the
abortion. Was that your plan all along?”
“Apologize to Sar! If you don’t, I'll never forgive you!”
| slapped Antoacross the face.
Then, before he could react, | slapped Sarah, too.
“Antonio! What the hell’s wrong with you? What did | say
that’s so wrong? What did | do to her that’s so wrong? I didn’t even touch her, and you wantto apologize?
Are you out of your mind?
“You've been begging for a reunion, right? Didn't | say |
wanted a divorce? What's so hard to understand? Or are you just so pathetic that you can’t bear to let go?
“Still asking for a beating? You love it, don
you? Don’t forget to thank me, idiot. And you, Sarah? Stop playing the victim. You've cried so much. You've
ruined the Northern Lights for everyone! It’s pathetic! You knew exactly what you were doing, but now you act
like it’s true love? How laughable.
“You chere to flaunt it, even before your baby’s out of the hospital? | swear, you're just asking for trouble.
Look at you. You've got a death wish written all over you.”
Antoopened his mouth to speak again.
But | casually scooped up a handful of snow, shoved a chunk into each of their mouths, and then turned to leave.
Back home, | fell back into the routine of work.
The pain of losing that child slowly faded, little by little.

He'd changed, becoming a different person, finding new ways to blockand contact me.
He called and messagedfrom different numbers for days.
But | didn’t respond to a single one.
On the third day, after finishing surgery, a bouquet of bright red roses was suddenly placed in front of me.
Antonio’s face was flushed, his eyes filled with emotions | couldn't quite understand.
“Grace, I've been thinking about this for a while now, and | don’t want to separate anymore. Can we not divorce?
I've been waiting for you at home, but you never cback.”
“Fighting is one thing, but can’t we just move past what happened? Let's start over, please. | really can’t live

It almost madelaugh.
But my face was pale and tired from the surgery, so | couldn’t even smile.
Around us, patients were gossiping..
And new nurses whispered to each other.
| knew they recognized the “good husband” from the other day.

“Grace, please don’t do this. Let's give each other an out. | chere to pick you up from work.”
As | looked into Antonio’s sincere eyes, | noticed Sarah standing not far behind him, holding a baby.
Her face twisted with resentment.
When our eyes met, she mouthed the word “bitch.”
1 didn’t care.
| took the bouquet and tossed it straight into the trash.
Blood started to show on my clothes.
